Chapter 479
Victoria is right; before she lost her memories, I would not have expected her to fall for
1. me. After what I’ve done to her, how could I expect her to like me? I can only dare to
hope that she will continue to be by my side, that I will continue to take care of her, and
that she will eventually get used to being around me.
Seeing that Bane was lost in thought, Victoria knew she had hit the bullseye. Then, she
said coldly, “Anyway, I’m here now and didn’t break any promises. I still have the
freedom to do what I want and refuse anything I don’t want, right?”
He could only nod in response to her statements. “Yes, that’s right.”
“So, can you get out now?”
When Bane heard that, he didn’t say another word and stared at Victoria for a long time.
In the end, he had no choice but to concede defeat as he said, “All right, I’ll leave, but
you have to eat something at least. If you don’t want to go downstairs, I’ll get someone
to send meals to your room.”
Perhaps, fearing that she would decline, he left right after saying that.
After Bane left, there was a moment of silence before Victoria heard the door close
behind him. He’s gone. It was only then that she let out a sigh of relief, then sat on the
side of the bed. The earlier incident terrified her so much that she broke out in cold
sweat because she feared he would do something to her unexpectedly. In the past, she
had been able to act casually around him because she was unaware of this side of him,
but after seeing it for herself, she realized she needed to be on guard at all times. What
if he began acting irrationally one day? At that thought, she closed her eyes.
A whileter, there was a knock at the door, followed by Jessie’s voice. “Miss Selwyn,
Mr. Morison asked the kitchen staff to send you something to eat.”
When Victoria heard that, she opened her eyes again. “Come in.”
Jessie opened the door and entered with a te of various foods on it, and the
delicious aroma wafted through the air.
As Victoria took in the smell, she frowned slightly.
“Miss Selwyn, the kitchen staff made all sorts of food today. Which would you like to
eat?”
The food is exquisitely prepared, and it is clear that the chef exerted great effort to
create a dish that would please those eating it. The presentation is very appetizing.
Those were Victoria’s subconscious thoughts. These are all the foods I have loved in
the past, but now…
“You should start with some soup, Miss Selwyn.” Then, Jessie grabbed a bowl of the
chicken soup the chefs hadboriously prepared. The soup had a pleasant aroma

because many spices had been added to mask the chicken taste. She gently scooped
up some soup with a spoon and held it to Victoria’s lips, hoping she would at least take
a sip. With her current condition, even a spoonful of soup would be beneficial.

The moment when the spoon was bought near Victoria’s mouth, she felt like throwing.
1. up. “Blech-” She was initially frowning, but when she caught a whiff of the scent, her
stomach immediately began to churn, and she could not control herself as she retched.
Immediately after that, she reached up, covered her mouth, and ran toward the
bathroom.
Jessie was shocked out of her senses. When she heard the retchesing from the
bathroom, she finally collected herself and ran toward the bathroom. “Miss Selwyn, are
you okay?” At that moment, her face was even paler than Victoria’s. She thought that
she must have gotten herself into trouble. Victoria couldn’t eat anything in the first
ce, but she had held the chicken soup in front of Victoria, causing her to retch like
this. Could Miss Selwyn proceed to eat anything after this? I’m done for. At this
realization, she began to worry about her future.
Meanwhile, Victoria leaned against the sink, retching for a long while. Her stomach was
churning, but she hadn’t eaten anything recently, and she didn’t even drink much water
today, so her stomach was empty. There was nothing for her to throw up. Ultimately,
she ran out of energy, and Jessie helped her out of the bathroom. Then, shey limply
on the couch.

Jessie noticed that her face was as white as a sheet, and strands of ck hair clung to
her forehead because of the sweat. She looks so helpless and looks very pitiful. How
did things turn out like this?
She looked at Victoria, her heart aching for thetter. Then, she bit her lower lip and
said with reddened eyes, “Miss Selwyn-”
On the other hand, Victoria took a long time to recover. She had juste to her
senses when she heard Jessie crying. She looked up to see Jessie looking at her with
teary eyes. “What’s the matter?” She didn’t expect Jessie to cry.
Jessie was surprised at her tears as well. After that, she wiped her tears and
apologized, “It’s nothing. I was just startled. Are you okay, Miss Selwyn?”
“Did I scare you? Sorry for that.”
“You don’t have to apologize, Miss Selwyn. It was my fault.” As Jessie spoke, she took a
handkerchief and dried the cold beads of sweat on Victoria’s forehead. Then, she said,
“What do we do now? You can’t keep rejecting food, Miss Selwyn. If you don’t like the
food cooked at home, why don’t I take you out for a meal?”
Victoria smiled weakly as shey there. “It’s okay, we don’t have to go out. I probably
don’t have the appetite, that’s all. It’lle back in a few days.”
Don’t have the appetite? At first, I thought Miss Selwyn had a bad appetite and that it
Chapter 479 Lost to Her
would get better in time, but it’s been several days, and it seems to have gotten worse
instead of better. Also, she is taking medication on the side, which is a recipe for
disaster if she continues. At this realization, Jessie suggested, “Why don’t you see
another doctor, Miss Selwyn? Perhaps, you can get it checked out at the hospital. It
might be a stomach problem.”
“I’m fine. If you’re so worried, bring me something sweet to drink.”

Hearing that Victoria had asked for something to eat, Jessie wiped her tears away. She
got up, grabbed a chilled watermelon soup, and brought it to her. “Is this okay, Miss
Selwyn?”
“Yes, thank you.” Victoria epted the bowl and took a few sips. The watermelon was
pureed, and all its vors had seeped into the soup. She liked the vor, but something
about the way it tasted in her mouth seemed off. It seemed to her that her stomach
was actively rejecting the food. Nheless, she felt bad seeing Jessie staring at her
with reddened eyes. I’m afraid Jessie will cry again if I don’t eat something. She could
only sigh as she numbly stuffed the chilled watermelon soup into her mouth. Then, she
forced half a bowl of the soup down her throat, but she couldn’t stomach more. Hence,
she could only look at Jessie and say, “Put it aside for now. I’ll eat moreter on.”
“All right.” Jessie thought she wouldn’t eat more than two mouthfuls, but Victoria
surprisingly downed half the bowl, and she was ted about that. She immediately
nodded and carefully stored the bowl of chilled watermelon soup. She assumed

Victoria enjoyed the vor, but she had no idea Victoria simply drank more to avoid
seeing her cry.

Victoria had previously retched for quite some time, so after drinking the chilled
watermelon soup, her stomach became extremely ufortable again. She endured
the difort as she leaned against the couch. Subsequently, she could not hold it in
any longer, and right after Jessie got back, Victoria dashed to the bathroom and puked
up the entire bowl of soup.
